Membership Update

At our recent AGM held on June 10th, it was decided THAT in addition to MWOS Life Members, all those who attended the AGM FY17 meeting or who expressed their regrets and wish to remain active in the Societywould automatically be included on this year’s (FY18) Company List. This would be extended to include all those who attend (or send regrets to) other meetings of the Society. Please contact members.mwos.org to add your name to this list.

‘Project Phoenix’ – the first step

During the AGM (FY17), attendees were consulted regarding their commitment to MWOS in the future. This session was led by animator and theatrical performance specialist Jane Needles. It was determined that all of those assembled were interested in seeing MWOS continue, but that a process of rebirth and reorganization would have to be accomplished. ‘Project Phoenix’ was established and a small planning committee was struck. For more information, please contact ProjectPhoenix@MWOS.org

MWOS becomes the Montreal West-End Operatic Society

It was announced at the Diamond Jubilee - by the MWOS President, Susan Colby-Germinario - that MWOS has turned a corner in modifying its name to become more inclusive and true to its current home. The Montreal Westend is where we rehearse, perform, meet, party and, for the most part, live. Our audiences are primarily from the west-end. We enjoy the support of a number of west-end communities, namely: Côte Saint Luc, Westmount, Montreal West, and the Borough of NDG-CDN. We feel that our new name better describes who we are without losing our former identity. Long live the Montreal West-End Operatic Society!
